Multiple Accounts

So, I've been wondering this for quite a long time

Why are there multiple accounts (which use multiple login usernames) that end up having a different username in game? Here's an example You login with "DunksterBra", put in your password Your username logged in is something completely different like "DaFunkMasta"

With smurfs, the same thing happen Why can't there be a master-account that has a bunch of sub-username accounts? This way one can login with "DunksterBra" and then either use the username (with all its XP, champs, whatnot) "DaFunkMasta" or some random smurf account

I feel like this would make matchmaking easier and less likely to end up with Diamond I smurfs when someone they're playing against is just starting the game. Smurfs would be put against other smurfs, yada yada until level 30 when everything rounds out

This way players who are new are more likely to be playing against new players. Also makes accounts easier to manage

Thoughts?

I think a Master Account system would be much better for Riot to manage than Smurfs. I hate the idea of a 'Diamond 1' smurf coming in my game before I hit level 30, and I will NOT make a smurf because the concept, to me, is ludicrous. Master Accounts would be easier for Riot to manage, and would encourage 'smurfing' without having to worry about players circumventing punishments by using them (I've played with one or two people on 'Smurf' accounts while their main accounts were banned, which is SPECIFICALLY against Terms of Use)
